Boston—Using ingestible sensors, mobile apps, dashboards and other high-tech tools, pharmacists are working with providers to improve adherence rates among patients with hepatitis C virus, according to two studies presented at the 2018 Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy’s Managed Care & Specialty Pharmacy Meeting.
